    GM'S SECRET PLANT

    General Motors has four plants in Mexico, but has secretly been building a fifth plant there. The global auto giant - facing enormous health and retirement costs in the U.S. - has been diversifying its manufacturing globally for years. Why the stealth plant? GM execs don't want to upset the UAW which recently cooperated with GM in a buyout plan for employees. Some 25,000 are said to have taken GM's early retirement plan. Meanwhile, Ford announced it is significantly upgrading its operations in its three Mexican plants.
    THAT while Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff's agency might rely on high-tech gadgetry, the secretary himself is strictly low-tech.
    "I don't use e-mail," Chertoff said.
    "You just get deluged with a lot of garbage."

    Chertoff told Paul Bedard, whose Washington Whispers column appears in U.S. News & World Report, that his experience with e-mail was "picking through genuine work e-mails and invitations to baby showers.
    "People sometimes think you've gotten something that you actually haven't gotten."
    Instead of using electronic mail, Chertoff said, "I rely on people communicating with my staff."

    Remember, Chertoff is a Bush appointee!
